Walking the Magna Via Francigena was challenging - many steep hills, mud and rain. They organised everything else so that all we had to do was walk, making the walk much easier. The scenery was stunning.
We enjoyed our week on the Dingle Peninsula hike. Each day provided a different experience. Accommodation while basic was full of character. Some challenging days but a great sense of satisfaction once completed. Loved the views.

A hike filled with stunning scenery, challenging climbs, and accommodation in interesting locations. Need to be well prepared both in fitness and for extreme weather conditions. It was a challenging hike that we thoroughly enjoyed.
Alaska had been on my bucket list for years. This trip was everything I hoped it would be--plenty of varied activities, scenery and opportunities to see wildlife. Alaska is a huge place, and this trip allowed me to see many of the must-see areas with a great group of like-minded participants led by a knowledgeable and helpful guide. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who would like to experience the best Alaska has to offer.

An inspiring traverse around Dachstein Mountain (2995m), the highest peak in the stunning Salzkammergut lakes district of Austria. Tucked southeast of Salzburg, the Dachstein Massif is a spectacular limestone range where glacial landscapes meet soaring peaks over 2500 metres.

As you follow this exhilarating circuit, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of ancient ice fields, wildflower-filled meadows, jagged peaks and still alpine lakes. Each day offers a new perspective of the range, while your evenings bring the warmth of welcoming mountain hotels, combined with three unforgettable nights in rustic huts nestled high on the Dachstein Plateau – the perfect mix of comfort and adventure.
My first holiday abroad. My first group holiday. What an experience. Excellent local tour leader knew everyone and passionate about the environment. Spectacular walks in a varied environment. Generally moderate challenge , until the the final day to the high mountains . 700m climb to over 1800m altitude above the clouds with spectacular views
INCREDIBLE! Did the 20 day Australia east coast tour, had the best experiences, met some amazing people, memories and friendships that will last a lifetime. Thanks to our tour leader Val who was on point every day with her top banter and positive energy! Couldnt recommend this enough! The only downside was the tour had to come to an end! ¸
The Ring of Kerry is one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland and doing a walking trip is one of the best ways to see it. This trip gets you well away from the tour coaches that take over the roads of this area and you will see a different side of the country you might not experience even if driving it yourself. The 6 days of walking takes in most of the Kerry Way and the tracks take you through national parks, farmland and along coastal paths. Staying at B&Bs in little towns, this trip gives you a taste of true Irish hospitality.
